"Yes, Captain."

The crowd whispered.

Immediately, Zhang Dabiao and others commanded the troops to quietly assemble in front of the tunnel entrance.

"Enter!!"

After seeing Li Yunlong's low voice under the order, under the guidance of Duan Peng's front row, the soldiers of the Independent Regiment quietly stepped into the tunnel.

Li Yunlong and Duan Peng walked in the front together, only to see that the tunnel was pitch black, but at least they could light up the tunnel with a torch. I have to say that this tunnel left by the ancestors can at least allow people to walk upright without bending over.

It took about fifteen minutes for the troops to come out of the other exit of the tunnel one by one and step into the courtyard behind the kitchen behind the abandoned ancient temple in the West Gate City.

It was impossible for the place to be crowded with more than 4,000 horses, so the soldiers of the independent regiment who came out first carefully came out of the back of the kitchen and assembled in several other courtyards.

Fortunately, the abandoned ancient temple itself is empty.

After all, it has been abandoned for more than 70 years, and no one will notice it anymore.

Even if there are some displaced civilians in the abandoned ancient temple, the soldiers of the Independent Regiment who have been found are temporarily resettled in one place.

At 2:47 a.m., all the soldiers of the Independent Regiment who attacked Qingzhou City at night had all come out of the tunnel.

"Commander!!"

Duan Peng pointed to the abandoned ancient temple and said, "This is an ancient temple in the West Gate, which must have been abandoned for more than fifty years. ”。

"Hmm!!"

Li Yunlong nodded and said in a low voice: "That's all it looks like." Let the brothers of the reconnaissance company go out and disperse, catch the tongues of a few devils patrolling the streets and come back for interrogation, I want to know the latest situation in the city. ”。

"Understood, Captain!"

Duan Peng nodded and said in a low voice, and then immediately walked away and commanded the soldiers of the reconnaissance company to act.

Li Yunlong gathered Zhang Dabiao and Wang Huaibao, and directly asked Wei Dayong to take out the map and spread it on the ground, then took out a flashlight to illuminate the map, and then said in a low voice: "According to the map, the abandoned ancient temple and temple that we have now gone up to the ground should be here without a mistake." ”。

"It shouldn't be very far from the devil guarding the city headquarters in the city, but it's at least a few streets away."

After a pause, Li Yunlong continued to condense, "From the map, the little devil must have laid barricades and machine-gun fire points at traffic intersections. ”

"When Duan Peng comes back from reconnaissance of the enemy situation in the city, we will make detailed deployments."

Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion, said in a low voice: "Regiment commander, I think it is enough to concentrate troops and directly attack the headquarters in the Devil City." ”。

"As long as the devil command in the city is eliminated, without the overall command of the devil command in the city, the enemy troops scattered in the direction of the four city gates will definitely be vulnerable."

Li Yunlong shook his head and said, "Don't be careless. ”。

"The Japanese army brigade stationed in Qingzhou City is subordinate to the Third Brigade of the Devils, and the devils of this brigade directly belong to the headquarters of the First Army of the Devils, which is a front-line regular army, and it is a mixed brigade."

"I estimate that the combat effectiveness of the devil's defenders in the city is definitely not to the point of vulnerability."

At this time, Wang Huaibao, the commander of the third battalion, interjected, "Regiment commander, according to what Duan Peng said when he reported the enemy situation outside the city, the devil brigade in Qingzhou City happened to be four infantry squadrons, and each squadron guarded the direction of a city gate. ”

"We can't afford not to fight these squadrons of devils who are defending the city gates, otherwise there will be a danger of a blow in the back."

Li Yunlong nodded and said, "So, divide the troops!" ”。

"In this way, the general attack deployment is as follows: one battalion divides one thousand troops to three battalions, Wang Huaibao, you command one battalion of one thousand and three battalions of two thousand for a total of 3,000 men, and then divide the troops to attack the enemy army in the direction of the four gates of Qingzhou City."

"Da Biao, you and I command a battalion of 1,000 and take the command of the devils in the city."

When Zhang Dabiao and Wang Huaibao heard this, they nodded, this is a joint attack plan.

Four or five minutes later, Duan Peng and several fighters from the reconnaissance company withdrew.

"Commander!!"

After breathing a sigh of relief, Duan Peng reported in a low voice: "I caught a few devils patrolling the streets, but they all bit their tongues and committed suicide." ”。

"As a last resort, I caught a few puppet soldiers, but the puppet soldiers patrolling the city said with their tongues that most of the devil defenders were stationed at each gate as I reported to the regiment commander outside the city."

After a pause, Duan Peng continued, "The rest of the more than a hundred devils and part of Yamamoto Kazuki's special team should be in the brigade headquarters in the city. ”

"Then no problem!!"

Li Yunlong nodded, and then said with a resolute expression: "According to the plan, we will act in five minutes." ”。

"Wang Huaibao, divide the troops as soon as possible, and give me control of the west gate, north gate and south gate. There is no hurry in the direction of the east gate, but I must divide my troops and march in a hurry to the east gate, and I will block the gates within twenty minutes after the battle begins. Prevent this devil from running away again! ”

Wang Huaibao, the commander of the third battalion, smiled, and immediately said solemnly: "Please rest assured, the regiment commander, to ensure that the task is completed." ”。

"Good!!"

Li Yunlong nodded, then took out the pocket watch that Zhao Gang gave him and opened it to see that it was already 2:53 in the morning.

"It's 2:53 a.m., three o'clock sharp, the gunfire is the signal, and the general attack begins!!"

Zhang Dabiao and the others immediately responded in a low voice: "Yes, regiment leader." ”。

Immediately, Li Yunlong waved his hand, and everyone immediately began to prepare.

In order to succeed in this plan to attack Qingzhou City, Li Yunlong concentrated the firepower of at least two brigades comparable to the devils, plus brought five flying thunder cannons, and brought the latest explosives package that had been urgently bundled together.

Moreover, the number of mortars and grenadiers was also very large, which were captured by the previous annihilation of the two reinforced infantry brigades of the Sakata Wing and the Ito Wing, and the artillery fire power was sufficient.

In the quiet preparation of Li Yunlong and others, Qingzhou City was already silent at this time, after all, it was almost three o'clock in the morning.

Most of the people have already fallen asleep, especially the soldiers of the devil squadron in the direction of the gates guarding the city, their eyelids are also closed, and only a few sentries are on guard.

There was still a cold wind blowing in the early hours of the morning, especially the puppet army in the defensive positions on the periphery of the moat outside the city was even more miserable.

In the city, Yamamoto Kazuki stayed up all night in the original team headquarters of Toshio Riya, and his uneasy mood became more and more intense.

In particular, Kazuki Yamamoto now finds that his right eye is constantly beating, as if to prompt something.

"Fortune in the left eye, disaster in the right eye?"

Kazuki Yamamoto pressed his jumping right eye and muttered this Huaxia saying, "Could it be that something big is going to happen tonight?" What is it? ”。

"Your Excellency, what's wrong with you?"
